Omnia Potatoes

With just one burner to cook our meals onboard I really have to pick and choose what will take centre stage in the galley. It’s why I’m usually careful about leftovers and how those leftovers can be reborn for another time. Tonight was one of those times for two cups of leftover mashed potatoes from […]

I was so pleased with the results of my little potato stacks (recipe here), that I decided to try another potato side dish. Potato Latkes are one of my all time favourites, especially smothered in rich sour cream or plain Greek yogurt. Years ago while watching the kids’ show Mr. Dress-up (anyone remember him?) with […]

So far I’ve not found anything that requires a conventional oven that I can’t cook in my little Omnia stove top oven. Tonight while my chicken breasts were ‘poaching’ all on their own off-burner (you can read about this ingenious method here) I cooked us these rather elegant little potato morsels. Getting down and dirty […]

Every time I make shepherd’s pie it’s different. That’s the beauty of this dish. Sometimes I use ground up leftover roast beef and gravy, sometimes ground lamb. For our onboard, tiny galley life it’s easier when I use leftovers as I can make extra mashed potatoes one night and use them to top the pie […]

I have a REALLY good one for you this morning Galley Peeps. Super easy to throw together… Just a few simple ingredients… Perfect for supper, lunch or breakfast… Serve it straight from the oven… serve it warm… or as I found out while writing this post, directly from the refrigerator bite by delicious bite.. This […]

WHEN EASTER HAS PASSED… All this talk about baked hams and scalloped potatoes has left me craving Easter food. Not those chocolate eggs but the real food of which childhood memories are made. I’m talking about rich creamy scalloped potatoes.. I don’t have my Mom’s recipe but I do remember that she used to also […]

Several months ago I found an interesting post from one of my favourite bloggers, Lindsay of A Pinch of Yum. She had created a recipe for Creamy Cauliflower Sauce which she transformed into a delicious rich-tasting Alfredo-like concoction without the scary calories and fat content. I made it this summer at home, stashed some […]

This whole meal was surprisingly simple and so delicious. …surprising because it could have been prepared in the most modest of galleys… Beginning with the ‘baked’ potatoes keep in mind there is no traditional oven in my little galley, or no microwave… …just a little one-burner alcohol stove and one Omnia Oven Salted […]
